Nfu Oh 61

Good Morning! I am SO excited about what I have for you guys today. This was on my wishlist FOREVER. Nfu Oh 61, ahhhh! I thought I would never own this, it was sold out for months on faboloustreet, I had given up hope. Then it came back in stock and I snatched one up, woohoo! I think it's already sold out again though, which is a shame...blame the jerks who buy multiple bottles with the intention of selling them on ebay for lots of money (I have a strong dislike for people like that).

I saw a comparison on Make Up Alley a couple weeks ago between this new batch of 61 and a bottle the person bought a year ago and it seems to be a little less holo but damn...it's still awesome! When I bought 61 I also picked up 51 (!!!) and the Aqua base coat. It does seem like the Aqua base helped with application. I'm going to need to try it again with a holo I've used before not with an Aqua base to see if it really does make a difference. I used 2 coats of Nfu Oh 61 for the photos below.

I don't think there are too many people reselling, I think it's just a super popular color! Luckily I was able to go to Nfu-oh headquarters when I was in Korea a couple weeks ago and buy mine there! It looks gorgeous on you.

Jeez, I put your blog in my "daily reading list" and the day after you post about the craziest polish ever. I adore this one. And to answer your questions about the Aqua-base, yes, it does work on helping the application of many polishes, mainly all the "super fast drying hard to apply" ones. It has changed my life with CG Millenium and all the other Khromes, and with the OPI Suedes as well. I also confirm that Nfu Oh 61 is similar to Gosh Holo, but for me Gosh is more expensive and ugly in the bottle, so I keep my love to Nfu Oh!!!

The Aqua Base is also supposed to intensify the holo effect by creating a surface where they can all lie down properly. I've seen some picture comparisons of holos with and without the aqua base, and it looks like it works.

I have it too, but mine is more holo indeed! Why did they change the formula? *sadness* This is how it looks on me: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5HgmyelSO8Q/TcA27cgosLI/AAAAAAAABTQ/sk0PmgaT_TQ/s1600/Videoforskin+009.JPG
